Aamir Khan recently appeared on Komal Nahta’s talk show Game Changers where they discussed key issues facing the film industry. The conversation focused on rising production costs and how some stars make unrealistic demands from producers.
Aamir criticised the practice of actors expecting producers to pay for personal staff such as drivers, cooks and tea boys despite being paid a full acting fee. He said these people work for the actor, not the producer, so their salaries should be borne by the actor.
He also pointed out that some stars bring their families on set and still expect the producers to cover their expenses. Aamir clarified that he has always paid for his family’s costs whenever they accompanied him during shoots.
Fans supported his stance, agreeing that star demands have hit an all-time high. Aamir’s comments highlight the growing gap between actors and the struggling film industry where many big-budget films are failing.
He stressed that actors must stop acting like they are above the industry and instead support it by making fair demands. His remarks have sparked debate about professionalism and responsibility in Bollywood.
